Artificial-intelligence lab Anthropic is diving deeper into the financial services industry, releasing software on Tuesday that can speed up myriad tasks for banks, insurers and other companies. Timed to an event Anthropic is hosting in New York, the startup launched 10 financially focused agents, or AI programs that carry out tasks with limited human intervention. These include agents that can build a pitchbook, audit statements or draft credit memos, Anthropic said. The company also announced more data sources that its so-called Claude AI can access to perform financial work. Not yet a year into unveiling ambitions to tailor AI for finance, Anthropic has rapidly expanded its business, with adoption by Goldman Sachs, Visa, Citi, AIG and others. Banks have scrambled to access its Claude Mythos model to shore up their cybersecurity. At the Tuesday event, Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei was due to appear on stage with Jamie Dimon, the chief executive of JPMorgan Chase.
